I don't know if you can imagine my joy when I saw the Paris Baguette sign off the main road while heading to the resort. As a Bay Area foodie, that sight instantly made my day. If you know, you know. The pastries here are absolutely worth the detour--and honestly, wherever I see a Paris Baguette, I do pull over. That includes locations I've visited in Northern California, North Brunswick, New Jersey, Atlanta, Georgia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and even the one here in Charlotte down in Pineville. It's a bit of a drive for me, but when I'm in that area, I always make a point to stop in and pick up a couple of their delicious croissant-donut pastries and marzipan or almond croissants. That's the beauty of this bakery--it's a chain, yes, but the consistency is what keeps me coming back. I have yet to be disappointed. Of course, I had to stop at this Hilton Head location--and I didn't come empty-handed. Food connects people, and bringing pastries to your host is always a winning move. I picked up three different varieties of their famous croissant-donut style pastries (similar to the well-known cronut): * Chocolate * Tiramisu * Mango And I added two large almond croissants that were beautifully filled, flaky, and indulgent. Everything looked fresh, full, and irresistible. The setup inside is easy and efficient. It's self-serve: you grab a tray, line it with parchment, use the tongs, and select whatever catches your eye--from baguettes to cakes to coffee drinks. Checkout was quick, Apple Pay was accepted, and the whole experience felt smooth and well organized. The space was clean, friendly, and inviting, with plenty of outdoor seating. Bottom line: Whenever you see a Paris Baguette on your radar, pull over. It's dependable, delicious, and perfect for picking up pastries to share--or to treat yourself. For me, it's one of those rare places that delivers the same quality every single time, no matter the city--and that kind of consistency is something I truly appreciate as a traveler and lifelong foodie. read more

Inviting desserts to choose from. Realize it's a mini chain, but all of their baked goods drew me in. Had my soy latte with a croissant. That's all you need to start your day of walking throughout the City. They are known also for a rewards program. Everytime you go there you get credit for your next purchase. Located on Market Street, easy to get to on your walks. Service was efficient, friendly, I'd go back. I did a grab and go, so indoor seating was available if you ate in. read more

This is my opinion about their baguette. I like it. I enjoyed plain as well. The crust is not too hard, it's a bit chewy, the inside is airy. It's good to be eaten with butter, even better with habanero olive oil. It's a good American standard baguette. read more

I recently discovered Paris Baguette. Since I have a sweet tooth, I was excited to try some of the pastries and other sweets they make. On my first visit, I ordered the Raspberry Almond Croissant through the Paris Baguette app. It turned out there was not one available. This was not a great first impression, but I will give the staff credit for allowing me to substitute with another item -- the Dubai Chocolate Tart -- that may have been slightly more expensive. I returned the following week after being sent a birthday reward for a cake slice. I tried selecting the Pumpkin Pie Custard Tart. That was not eligible, so I changed it to the Ganache Cream Cake Slice. Neither of the desserts I tried was bad, but I wasn't wowed by either one. For the prices they are charging, I would expect better. What rubbed me the wrong way during these two visits was a small sign on the counter offering a free sugar mochi donut in exchange for a five-star review. I guess I shouldn't be shocked that businesses do this, but it is super uncool and unethical to solicit positive reviews with bribes. read more

Date: Monday, May 19th, 2025 What: Dessert Delivery Time Ordered: around 4:45pm Time Delivered: around 6:15pm Ordered: via DoorDash *Mini Strawberry Lemon Cream Croissant ($6.49) *King Cream Donut ($7.89) *Croissant Donut ($8.89) *Strawberry Soft Cream Cake Slice ($11.69) *Red Velvet Cake Slice ($11.49) My sweet tooth was in overdrive, so I decided to order a few items from Paris Baguette. I did some price comparisons, and DD does charge more for their items. Based on the PB site, the two cake slices are actually $9.19 each and the cream donut is $6.19. Couldn't find the other two items, but on these three alone, you are already paying an extra $6.50. I guess that's the price for laziness? The mini croissant was so tiny, but cute. Not as tart as I thought it would be, but at least it wasn't overly sweet. The cream donut was as expected. I've had this a few times. The croissant donut was okay. It was a lil stale in texture, but flavors were fine. I like their soft cream cake, so this was good. Light but creamy. I like this bakery since their items are not too sweet. But I don't remember things being this pricey. Over $10 for a piece of cake? Maybe if I'm in the area, I'll drop by, but I don't think I'll DD from here again. The premium is a lil too high.

3.5 stars. Beautiful desserts, but I've only tried their Iced Cookie Butter Macchiato, which was good and not too sweet. I like that they list the calories for every item on display. Clean interior. Small, very casual dine-in area. Friendly staff. One unisex bathroom, but it was temporarily closed when I visited today. read more

Okay, so I just finished commuting by train to the middle of SF and I literally needed to spend the rest of my gift card. I am beyond stoked that even visiting from out of state that my same card had transferred over and was able to use it on a Pistachio Latte. Paris Baguette is a franchise that I am proud to support from their consistent ingredients, food, and people. In the heart of the city, I could absolutely see myself coming back here again. read more

Meh. Don't bother coming by here for pastries after 3:30 PM. The staff is extremely slow, you will be waiting 20 minutes, and it is stark contrast to the staff in the morning time. The morning time staff has everything on lockdown. Won't be back, unless it's in the AM. read more

I visit every week. It's chill, great food and I can just sit on my phone and enjoy my chai.

Have mixed feelings for this place. Based on the reviews some cakes were not so fresh so we were a little nervous getting this cake. Luckily, this was so fresh and so soft! It wasn't overly sweet and it wasn't overly heavy. Do keep in mind that this was 'soft cream' cake so there was ALOT of cream, and not much of the 'cake' forgot to take a picture. So you're into the cream part then yes this would be a good choice. But if you are looking for more 'cake' then I would suggest picking something else. read more

Please give them some grace. They have low staff. I've seen some negative reviews and every encounter I've had has been nothing but positive. I've noticed a lot of customers with bad attitudes, in-person and poor commentary. I've also noticed that the main cashier is elderly. This is your typical Paris Baguette, a chain, not as big, but please be patient even if you don't have the best experience. It saddens me that some customers can be so rude and frustrated when our service workers are still human at the end of the day. Some food for thought to take as you navigate coming in... read more

Love fruit tarts and pastries and custard cream. They're obviously very pretty and worthy of giving as a little treat to a friend or birthday. The custard is just right, not eggy, very creamy, with a tint of sweetness. The fruits are fresh. However, the pastry part was disappointing. It was a tad dry and dull, and didn't have that flaky, buttery texture. It felt more like a plain dough that was just crafted to look flakey and rich, I feel like they could do better. read more

The food here is insane! Everything looks perfectly made and tastes amazing. The staff are so friendly and helpful and it's just a nice chill spot in the city. I came because someone brought in one of their full size cakes to work and I just had to check it out. Very happy I did, I'll be back! read more

The cake I bought was delicious. Note: if you buy a cake make sure you buy it 24 hours in advance so that it shows up in their systems. I bought mine at 10:30 with a same day pickup at 4pm. Online it said it was available but in store they didn't receive my order. read more

The food is always amazing until there's no filling in your donuts. The always get the coffee croissant donuts because they NEVER disappoint but now sadly I have been disappointed in the donuts. The service was ok. The lady did not greet me but asked me what I wanted and quickly got it and went to the next customer. The was no ambiance. read more

As others have mentioned, prices are expensive for their pastries. I ordered online for a company meeting.

Absolute amazing!!!! The bakery is Korean styled (self served) (The case doors face you and you get a tray and tongs and put the items from the case on your tray). The pastries were wonderful! We got a whole variety of them! The chocolate croissant was fully and flaky! I was hopping for a little more chocolate inside the croissant but over all great! The apple pastry was filled with apple filled and tasted amazing! I really wanted a second one! The sugar mochi donut was alright. We wished it was a little better. The jalapeño cream cheese croissant was the star of the show. So delightful and flavorful! An absolute must try! read more

If you're missing Parisian pastries, this is the fix you need! I love a fresh, warm, and simple croissant and this bakery not only gives you that but dresses them up with uniqueness! From their mini garlic ones to their strawberry filled croissants! Plenty of other delicious pastries to satisfy your cravings as well. Helpful that it's located smack dab on Market so you can pop in to and from the office or before/after hopping on public transportation. read more

Paris Baguette - Bakeries Near Me - San Francisco, California

To my surprise, Paris Baguette opened up on market street! I've always loved this bakery, especially their blueberry chiffon cake. I was excited that there would be a place I could get pastries whenever I'm in the office. The entrance to this store is by See's Candy on Sansome street. They have a sign out and their logo sticks out with the navy paint they have. When you walk through the doors, you're immediately greeted by the trays, tongs, parchment paper and two cases of pastries you can grab. There are a few individually wrapped breads and cakes too. They do have larger cases dedicated to small slices of cake or whole cakes for sale. You have to tell an employee to get something for you. They also do have some breakfast items and sandwiches. They don't have everything you expect from a larger store, but they have fan favorites for sure. They also do serve a variety of drinks, such as coffee, tea, frappes, etc. I have to say that this location is SUPER small. It gets crowded very quickly and they only have a few tables in the back for you to enjoy your food. I have to say I feel like the prices here are way higher than other locations. I couldn't believe I spent nearly $42 on the following: -1 chicken pesto sandwich ($13.99) -1 slice of blueberry chiffon cake ($9.29) -1 fruit tart ($6.49) -1 butter cream bread ($4.49) -1 pepperoni pizza flat bread ($7.79) -1 bag ($0.25) + tip as well. I was baffled considering that some locations have slightly lower prices than this. I get possibly being a SF location, they would have to break even on the cost of goods they produce + business expenses. Even then, it felt too expensive for what I was getting. I have to say from what I tried, the chicken pesto sandwich didn't hit the same. There was a differing taste than what I remember and it wasn't toasted as well. I didn't finish this sandwich since I was a bit disappointed. The butter cream bread is something you can skip. It hardly had any cream and the bread felt a bit dry. Everything else I'll have to try tomorrow, but I feel robbed a bit considering I like Paris Baguette. I'll probably come back for a pastry or coffee, but I'll definitely go to other locations to get more bang for my buck. ETA: I got to try the pizza pastry and the fruit pastry today. The pizza pastry (pepperoni one) is better when it's toasted and it's very good. If you have an air fryer, I'd put it in at 400 for a few minutes. Is it worth $8? Probably not. The fruit pastry itself was good as well. The fruit was sweet and the cream itself paired well all together. I do recommend eating this the day of. The croissant gets soft and it would be hard toasting this. I probably wouldn't pay another ~$7 for this since it's a bit steeper for a pastry. read more

If you're in the mood for a decent tasting croissant or french-style pastry or sandwich, and you're near FiDi, SoMa, or the Embarcadero, this spot has fairly solid offerings. I was in the area and turned back after passing the window when I saw their croissants on display. Picked up a plain croissant and pineapple custard/brulee croissant pastry to try. Both had the right amount of crispiness/flakiness and airiness to their bite. The pineapple custard was tasty with a nice char on top to bring out the caramelized sugar and pineapple flavor. Croissants and pastries run about $5 to $7. They also seem to have sandwiches ranging from $9 (for their breakfast sammie) to about $16 for more filling and savory choices. They also have a few tables inside to seat about 8 people, within their narrow store that has entrances from both Market St and the other end of the store on Sutter St. read more

Interior felt clean and there were lots of cakes available. Even though it's a lot pricier in sf compared to NY, glad there's a location as I love their sponge cakes. Twisted donut - 2/5 bread wasn't particularly spongy and it cost $5?! In NY, it's about $3 :/ Wouldn't get again. read more

Compared to other locations, this place is small. Not a lot of variety but the treats are very yum as in other places. Taste fresh and sweet. Some deli items as well. There are plenty of drinks available as well. You get a tray and some tongs, and there are some sliding doors to get to the goods. The service was very friendly and fast. Extremely steep prices, but that's nothing new in San Francisco. Right in the middle of Market Street, so any MUNI bus or tram and BART station is accessible. read more

Very good pastries and cakes. Aesthetically pleasing to the eye as well. Close to Montgomery BART. Narrow and long location. They have most items that a suburban location has, although the cakes are in a separate section so you may not see them right away. It gets a little crowded since everyone stares at the pastries at the very front of the store so trying to figure out where the lines begins and ends can be confusing. You are supposed to grab a tray and tongs to select your baked goods, feels like an accident waiting to happen due to the tightness of the store layout. They should offer lighter plastic trays instead of the heavy wood ones. read more

I got an assortment of pastries with mixed, mostly good, reviews! Pain aux Raisin (A) - this is a relatively well made pastry alternating between crispiness with the puff pastry and softness with the raisins and added cream. Crab Croquette (D) - this is quite an expensive pastry for all bread and minimal imitation crab meat; the worst part is that the bread is dry! Sweet Potato Twists (B) - There's two versions of these pastries, the mini one and the full size version. The mini ones are extra crispy and have a crunchy texture but do not supply much more than that. The larger one actually has sweet potato flavor, but unfortunately remains a bit dull beyond some sweet paste. Croissant Loaf & Raisin Bread (A) - Both these loaves are light and fluffy, a hallmark of enjoyable bread. I liked how the raisin bread has copious amounts of raisins, which carried the flavor. For the croissant loaf, the pastry had several thin layers with the butter creating richness and airiness into the loaf, making it enjoyable. Yuzu Mochi Donut (A) - the donut is light and fluffy! I really liked the yuzu flavor as it is very forward and lifted the dish in acidity and sweetness nicely. Castella (B) - this honey cake is very fluffy and tasty; my only complaint is the paris baguette version of this cake is always hard to digest as if it were very dry for some reason. read more

I didn't even know there was a Paris Baguette close by until my friend told me about it. I ordered a Strawberry Soft Cream Cake online to bring to dinner with friends. It was easy for pickup and it was packed in a nice box. I asked for a bag and they charged $1 for it. For me it's easier to walk around FiDi with a bag instead of just a box. The cake was light and soft and most importantly, not too sweet. It was perfect! I'll be ordering from them again for other events. read more

This is really a small store. Smaller than the one in SSF. With good reason, this also isn't a self service store. You need to order your pastries with the Clerk and they will bag it for you. Selections are same. The ham and cheese croissant is fresh. Coffee is good. read more

Amazing pastries, and surprisingly good lattes. Friendly service too. They are open later than most coffee places in the area.

this is a global chain that I've had in multiple countries, but this location is the only one in SF. it's a really small cafe that usually has upstairs seating as well. there were many empty tables but the tables weren't really clean. I got the ham & cheese pastry and I wasn't a huge fan of the crispy cheese outside but the croissant itself was crisp outside and light and fluffy inside. read more

I am extremely unsatisfied with both cakes that I got at this location, which totaled nearly $100. I have gotten the same cakes at other Paris Baguette locations, and this is by far, the worst. There is no way this is the norm! I feel completely cheated. Both cakes were noticeably shorter in height. I was in a rush to set up the party so I did not take on this complaint with the staff. Everyone made a comment as to how small the cakes were. Several even said that they could eat the whole cake themselves. Not sure how it's supposed to serve 8 people. Tried contacting their customer service for a partial refund, but no response. Not surprised. Sigh. Update: I received an email response from them, but they completely disregarded my complaint: "Thank you for your email. We have reviewed your account and see that the reward points were added to your account at the time of purchase. Have a great day." What kind of customer service is this??? Just awful. Still no further email response from customer service despite their Yelp response. read more

I was looking for something sweet while on my lunch break and Google'd "Macarons near me" and "Bakeries near me," Paris Baguette actually did not show up at all on Google Maps, so I originally had no idea it was just 2 minutes away from me! Now that I know it is so close by, I think I will be coming here to get pastries at least once a week. The shop has both Asian and French inspired desserts either wrapped, unwrapped, or on the cake display case. This is a smaller Paris Baguette than what I am used to, and all the pastries are behind a glass. Typically, you would get your own tray and tongs to pick out the pastries yourself, but here you would just inform the staff of which items you want. There's a small sitting area in the back, but it is closed off due to COVID. I just ordered a pistachio and strawberry macaron which were medium sized and a little over $2 each. Since they were in a fridge, the macarons were a little hard at first but still delicious! read more

I came to this establishment today and I order a latte with no ice that cost me $6.15. To start my coffee was 75% full, when I ask the ladies they told me it is because of the ice I did not order. So I told them that does not make any sense and if they can fill it out for me but they refused and with a bad attitude told me that it the way it comes. They are so many options out there for coffee, but I like to come to this location because of the sweets cakes I can get but with all of this poor costumer service it makes me start looking for other options. I hope the managers can retrain these employees on how to handle costumers. read more

This Paris Baguette may be the smallest one I've seen yet but that doesn't mean the pastries and bread aren't delicious! Storefront is right in the middle of the financial district (near Montgomery Station) and the entrance is tucked a little from the street. Store is long and narrow and the bread selection is the first thing you'll see to your right. To the immediate left, it's pretty empty due to the pandemic but towards the end you'll see plenty of cakes for any kinds of celebration. Near the cash register there's a tiny selection of pastries (makes sense since we're in a pandemic and there's probably not a lot of foot traffic). My to go for the day: 1) matcha cream croissant 2) coffee cream croissant (or was it espresso cream?) 3) peanut butter crunch 4) sweet potato bread 5) coffee bun 6) hash brown bun As of this review, I have only had the matcha cream croissant and it was absolutely delicious. The matcha was lightly sweetened but still that that strong, matcha flavor. I'm not a huge fan of overly sweet matcha so this was perfect. The croissant was a bit dark on the outside but it was still flaky and I don't think I tasted anything burnt. Overall, with the reopening and people going back to work, if you work/live near the financial district, this would be a great place to pick up some breakfast to go. There are also some caffeinated beverage options for a pick me up. read more
